Hunan Restaurant 湖南菜馆
This place is amazing for some spicy Hunan style Chinese food. I’ve come here a few times and the food never disappoints. The dishes are spicy but the spice does not overpower the other flavours of the dish. The restaurant is also friendly for individual diners as each time I see single patrons eating bowls of noodle or have one dish with a big bowl of rice. You know it’s good when even Caucasian individual diners show up to eat here, which is an authentic Chinese restaurant.
Even a simple fried green pepper with eggs can be this delicious! So tasty!!!😭And the stir-fried noodles… absolutely flavorful! If I am living in downtown, I want to come here every day.
Lee Chen Asian Bistro
Stopped by Lee Chen for a weekend meal a couple weeks ago and had a lovely experience. We ordered a few dishes including chow mein, Szechuan fish and garlic fried Bok Choy. We got steamed rice on the side. My favorite dish was the chow mein. The fried thin noodles are lovely and well stir fried. There's a good flavor here that's great comfort food. The only issue I had is that the quantity is a little on the low side for the price. $15 for stir fried noodles could have been a little more on quantity, especially without any protein added. The fish is a bit on the spicy side and it was a little powdery for my liking. The coating here is also a bit soggy for this type of dish. I didn't mind it but I don't think I would order it again. The greens were excellent. Simple and delicious flavours here with garlic. Really enjoyed this dish too. The service here was nice. The hostess is lovely and friendly making us feel comfortable and welcomed. Overall this is a lovely spot for a nice meal. I think I would try some of the meat dishes and dumplings that are more popular. Recommend supporting this local Toronto spot.
The best soup dumplings you can have in Toronto! Stumbled upon this place while running an errand in Downtown Toronto on a Monday night. It happens to be crowded during the weekend but during weekdays it was pretty quiet and empty. Great food and service!
A BBQ House 一家烧烤
Very fresh and delicious food! Great varieties of food choices! Loved it! Will definitely order again!
As one steps foot into the restaurant, one is greeted with neon-colored signed boards and mesmerizing lights. The music choice and great customer service from the staff add to these amazing vibes. Their food is on the spicier side and has a numbing effect so be sure to prepare your taste buds. A must-order is their sweet and sour pork, Thai spicy & sour shrimp and stir-fried spicy squid leg. Their skewers especially the sausage and lamb were excellent ! Each dish is so unique that you'll get addicted to try them all!
Congee Queen(Yonge&Dundas)
We had an amazing experience yesterday at this restaurant. The food was very tasty, the quantity excellent and fresh. The variety of chicken dishes is limited. And we were surprised to see that the chicken fried rice had a generous amount of peas! We had never seen so many peas in chicken fried rice 🤣 However, we are surely going to come here again for a meal.
We celebrated a good day here, and it was definitely worth it! The duck was authentic, with a rich flavor perfectly balanced by the sour plum sauce and sweet soybean. But we both wished it had been served a bit warmer. The mango shrimp 🍤 with fried chicken was sweet, crunchy and not soggy in the syrup at all! Loved it 😊 The fried noodle was also great, not greasy, not too salty, and did its job well as a satisfying carb.
Miss Fu In Chengdu (Downtown) 付小姐在成都
This was my first time at Miss Fu, and I’m so glad I discovered such an amazing gem of a restaurant so close to my office. My colleague who recommended the place (very highly) took me during our work lunch break. Maomao was our server, and he was very friendly and quick. The 2 of us ordered a few dishes to share including the Chongqing Crispy Chicken Breast, Braised Quail Eggs, and Chongqing Hot & Sour Sweet Potato Noodle. The chicken breast was my favorite by far. It was literally mouthwateringly flavourful and spicy. The braised quail eggs were a very close second. I was curious to try them, because I had never tried quail eggs before, and they did not disappoint. Lastly we got the noodles, which were very good, but definitely tough to share. Then for desert we got the Fried Brown Sugar Rice Cake, which was a very unique experience. The consistency, and flavor, was totally unexpected, but in a great way. As someone with a sweet tooth, it was a fun experience to try something new. I’d definitely get it again.
AMAZING. It’s hard to find an authentic Chinese restaurant in the city, but this one is the real deal. Every dish we had was delicious, their Chongqing style pork is honestly even better than the ones in China. Restaurant is also similar to the ones you’d find in China; ordering from a QR code, portable phone chargers, and the smell of numbing spice. Definitely in my top choices for Chinese food in the city, I’ll be back to try more.
Mogouyan Hand Pulled Noodle 磨沟沿老字号兰州牛肉面
A nice place, waiters are very attentive, food is fantastic and the choice is diverse. I took the bean jelly, the jelly itself doesn’t have any taste but the sauce is nice. Soup was fantastic, all the noodles and the broth. Even the water they give is not from tap, tastes nice. Prices are very fair for the downtown, i was pleasantly surprised. Washroom needs a better cleaning, i don’t think they washed floors there since the opening of the place. Hope that changes. Overall, enjoyed the experience and will come again.
We came to Mogouyan for lunch on a cold day. We arrived just as they were opening, which was good because they have limited tables, and it quickly got quite busy with the lunch rush. The service was quick and the food was very good. I preferred the noodle with minced beef paste over beef noodle soup with pickle. I just found the soup a bit too salty for my taste. That might have been from the pickled veg. Overall, we had a good experience, and I would try Mogouyan again for a quick lunch.
Urban Hakka
Very reasonably priced for the area and good go-to for after-drinks consumption. Pad Thai (see photo) is a bit on the sweet side for me, with a rather carmine colour, but still decent and beef added for free (good for a 2-for-1 deal via ubereats if looking for quantity). Tandoori Chicken Fried Rice (see photo) is better and enjoyable. In the past, also had Chilli Fish, which is great on the day of. Vegetable Fried Rice is a bit plain jane, but that is to be expected perhaps. In the era of inflation, a decent neighbourhood shop.
Came here for a late lunch and was not happy with a plastic seal cover of a sauce in my drink. When I brought this to the servers attention, she asked me if I put it or if i was opening a sauce at the table. We ordered the masala lollipop, spring rolls, Manchurian gravy chicken and the dry chili chicken, everything was tasty but the chili chicken. There was an insane amount of salt that we couldn't digest and sent it back. The service overall was whatever- i wouldn't return.
Chi Dim Sum
Tried the special, very good! A small bowl of wonton which was fantastic and a nice plate of red sauced chicken w white rice. Added a bit of hot sauce. Service was good perhaps too keen, they came by too many times, perhaps it's a thing overseas but I'd like my meals undisturbed. Overall a great edpericne, nice tasty and clean.
The food was overall yummy. We had the Peking duck. They also gave us a roll I think of crunchy spicy salmon sushi which was really nice of them and that tasted good as well. We heard that the duck was tableside service but it wasn’t, and it also looked a bit old so we were kind of skeptical but it tasted good. Otherwise the staff were really nice and the price is pretty cheap.
SHINYI Handmade Dumplings | dumpling house of 416
The dumplings are pretty good - not mind blowing or anything, but they’re nice and fresh. The fried dumplings are the way to go here, even though I usually prefer steamed. They’re really juicy and flavourful. The peach juice that I got was also absolutely delicious. Service is fairly quick as well. No real complaints, but it’s not my favourite place to get dumplings in Toronto. If you’re not a huge fan of very umami flavours in your dumplings, this might not be your ideal spot. Prices are pretty good as well.
Nice little place for dumplings, but they actually have quite an extensive menu. Some dishes are quite reasonable and others are on the pricier side. Portions are generous. Not as crowded as other places close by, but worth a spot on the rotation. I would recommend this place for both locals and visitors.
China King
I ordered the noodles general to and sweet and sour pork. I got soo sick from eating at this location. When I went back to just let them know what happend, one of the ladys at the front said I didn't order from them and got defensive. Don't order from this food court check if they even have their health and safety food handlers up to-date
I stumbled upon this Chinese food place in Chinatown, and I'm blown away. Their dishes are authentically delicious, and the ambiance takes you on a cultural journey. Kung Pao Chicken and Sweet and Sour Pork are my top picks.
Pearl Yorkville Chinese Cuisine
Swung by for lunch and it really hit the spot. All items during lunch were either 8/10/12 bucks each and every item was fantastic. Hockey Pucks are the classic go-to, stand out friend dumpling. We also had hargaw which was good, the fried garlic and shrimp which was decent and a little heavy and comes with mayo, the chive and shrimp which were great. All in all we had about 9-10 dumplings each and paid about $30 which felt like a pretty good deal given the quality of the food and the attentiveness of the staff. Had to ask for an additional serving of chili oil — I’d only wish we had more of that. Other than that, this is a solid spot that is a step up in decor and ambiance from Shang Ji across the street — but let’s be honest there is a proportionality to how low key and hole-in-the-wall Shang Ji feels to how much (even more) superior their soup dumplings are. When you can’t go there because you’re rolling with folks who have dietary and vibe restrictions, this is the spot!
Very nice dining atmosphere with nice, attentive servers, however I was disappointed by the food. The shrimp dumpling wrappers were a little off (too sticky and not chewy/elastic-y) and the sweet and sour pork was a little dry and hard. Rice and fried calamari were ok and the hockey pucks were the stand out of the meal. Paid around $55 after tip and tax for 5 dishes split between three people. The amount of food was good but I don’t think its worth it for the quality.
Not Just Noodles
I love this place! Good food, good value & consistently clean. Plus bring a date, one of you is bound to think this place is cute (see pic)
Awful food. Claims multicultural menu but it's gentrified and tastes awful. Had a tom yum noodle soup and it tasted like a slight spicy Campbell's canned tomato soup. Maybe because it's not a Thai place. But it's not a Japanese place either but they also have Japanese menu items. And other cultures. To be fair, there are some good ingredients like a bit of fresh basil and other herbs.. but i believe this place is trying to be too diverse and has a confused identity so it's not particularly great at anything. Also the upstairs bathroom is disgustingly filthy and the seating area looks quite trashy.
